Connection Circles

I have noticed a greater need for Christians to talk about their faith with one another. With this pandemic stealing so much of our fellowship opportunities, I felt a burden to find a way for brothers and sisters in Christ to start making closer connections with each other. That’s when I believe the Lord gaveContinue reading “Connection Circles”

Attendance Matters

I have wondered if people went to school and work like they went to church, would the student still be promoted to the next grade? Would the worker still have a job? Attendance is a big deal in our day to day activities. Schools have an attendance office. My son, Daniel received awards in elementaryContinue reading “Attendance Matters”

A Mother’s Reflection

Does a son learn from his mother? Yes. Does a mother learn from her son? Most definitely. Our family is rejoicing over the news of my son Michael’s position as Valedictorian. His weighted GPA is 103.79 and he is ranked #1 out of 447 students. I say this to exalt the Name of Christ. TheContinue reading “A Mother’s Reflection”

Last summer we went to visit Lavender Fields and it only sparked my love for lavender even more. I love all sorts of colors but I find myself falling for the pastels. Pretty pink and baby blue with a hint of white…oh so nice. But taken together and you get a treat for the eyes…lavender. Continue reading “Lavender Loveliness”

Flowers That Will Last

I think April is such a pretty month. I have a special tree outside my bedroom window that always takes my breath away. I’m pretty sure it is a Pink Weeping Cherry Tree. After being barren during the long, dark days of winter, this lovely tree begins to turn pink for what seems to neverContinue reading “Flowers That Will Last”

Creative Prayers to Pray Throughout Your Day

I was waiting for water to boil so I could cook. I was staring at my stainless steel pot just waiting for those big bubbles to start bubbling forth. It became a reminder to me of how we long for the Lord to overflow us with His presence. We want to be set ablaze forContinue reading “Creative Prayers to Pray Throughout Your Day”
